Looking at the specs on both, it seems the Coolermaster Hyper 6 has a little advantage on the Thermaltake. Technology and quietness, I think. I've been looking at all the new cooling solutions too. I'm always looking for cooler temps.
I don't get it. That viperlair review starts with he talking about the new batchs of cpu's and that they run hot etc., but what cpu's did he test the coolers with? a 2.4C? =/
Ok review, but i cant' see the point in testing new hyped coolers on old cpu's.
This coolermaster looks very much like the one i recieved last week but if you look at the backplate for the coolermaster, it's exactly the same as the backplate of the Thermalrights. I think Coolermaster will have a problem with that if there is some sort of patent from Thermalright.
Looks nice - I feel like getting this now, especially since it supports many platforms like AMD 64, Pentium 4, etc.
And if it costs about $40 than its definitly a better choice than the Thermalrights which I've seen for $50ish
Amazing! This thing has a metal plate you have to mount on the back of your MB to hold the weight! You would think that someone would invent a cooling device thats not only really cools but is lightweight too. I'm looking at the watercooling http://www.xoxide.com/watcoolkit.html too. And I do like the idea that it will fit many different cpu's.

but you have to admit, this thing looks wicked!

Kinda worried about the weight, LOVE the looks and concept and fan control.
This would be KILLA in my WaveMaster!!
